Anthony Smith silenced the partisan crowd at Ericsson Globe in Stockholm, and in the process, moved past a disheartening championship defeat.

In a battle of the last two light heavyweight title challengers, “Lionheart” submitted Alexander Gustafsson with a rear-naked choke at the 2:38 mark of round four in the UFC Stockholm headliner on Saturday. Smith has won four of five since moving to 205 pounds, with his only setback coming at the hands of reigning champion Jon Jones.
